The 2nd International Conference on Economic Degrowth for Ecological Sustainability and Social quity was held in Barcelona in March 2010, co-organized by the ICTA, UAB. The Degrowth movement argues that economic growth is not the answer to the crises we face - financial, environmental and social, and that there is another way. This film, "Life After Growth", documents this "mouvement pour la décroissance", arguing that in rich countries, through a voluntary reduction of the economy we can work less, consume less and live better, fuller lives. "Life After Growth" points to the people and communities who are reclaiming economics for well-being instead of "well-having".
